Unlike standard browsers, Shift lets you drag and drop apps, bars, and controls to build a layout that actually matches how you work. Choose from 6 starter templates or build from scratch. Either way, you end up with a browser that fits your workflow, not the other way around. Whether you're a freelancer juggling clients, a remote worker managing multiple tools, or an entrepreneur running several projects at once, Shift gives you the flexibility to shape your digital workspace around your life. Sign into 1,500+ web apps, stay logged into multiple accounts at once, and use Spaces to keep work, side hustles, and personal browsing completely separate. Shift AI is built right in, so you can summarize pages, draft content, and get answers without jumping between tools or losing your train of thought. Everything you need lives in one place — your calendar, email, project management tools, and favorite apps — all accessible without the tab overload that comes with a standard browser. No more context-switching chaos, just one calm, organized place to get things done and stay focused on what actually matters. Shift is a Certified B Corp, a pioneer in carbon-neutral browsing, and has been recognized as a top browser on G2, TrustRadius, and SourceForge. Founded in 2016 in Victoria, BC, and part of the Redbrick portfolio, Shift is reimagining what a browser can do, not just for productivity, but for the planet. * * * Product Website Shift Seller [Redbrick](https://www.g2.com/sellers/redbrick) Discussions [Shift Community](https://www.g2.com/products/redbrick-shift/discuss) Languages Supported Bengali, Czech, German, English, Basque, French, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Tamil, Telugu, Turkish, Ukrainian, Chinese (Simplified) Solution Type Best-of-Breed Overview by Joanna Yuen Show More ## Pricing Pricing provided by Shift. ### Basic Free User / Year [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/redbrick-shift/pricing) ![Warren W.](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Warren W.") WW Warren W. Senior Associate, Human Resources Practice Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/21/2026 "Effortless Staff Training with Shift" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I find Shift incredibly easy to use, with no learning curve for staff, allowing them to log in and take courses immediately. I appreciate that it provides a cost-effective solution for staff training on various topics. I also love that they are constantly introducing new content into the learning catalog and updating older courses to keep them interesting and challenging. Plus, the initial setup was very easy with no new software to learn. I'm really pleased with both the product and the support I've received so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Homeschool Coach Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/19/2024 "Still my favorite way to manage multiple email accounts" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I love that I can also access all my Google stuff from within Shift, particularly the chat and meet functions. Being able to chat with my team, do a video call, share files, etc. without having to open yet another browser window or launch yet another app helps streamline my workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? I still long for the day I can link my Fastmail in - that's the one last account I still have that I can't integrate anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Using Shift allows me to easily move back and forth between multiple accounts, something I have to do multiple times a day. I love that I don't have to keep opening new tabs or logging out of one account so I can log into another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ZG Zak G. Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 3/3/2026 "Seamless App Integration with Customization" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I love the ease of connecting applications with Shift and the customization options. The ability to make my window panes look organized and essential for my workflow is fantastic. I also appreciate that I can seamlessly link up almost any application without any issues, which keeps all of my work in one tool instead of scattered among many different tools. The seamless flow between applications and the ability to color code and customize keep my organizational flow simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? Recently, I tried to create another space integration that's called spaces in Shift. That's when you want to have a different Google account integrated with it. I had issues with connecting it, but the Google account's also brand new, so it might be an issue on Google's end. But other than that, I've actually had no issues with Shift. Everything has worked fairly seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Shift cleans up clutter by centralizing apps, making it easy to launch with notifications in one zone. I love connecting and customizing apps, organizing my layout for workflow efficiency, and ensuring work is in one tool instead of scattered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CEO Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/8/2025 "SHIFT" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? What I like most about Shift is how much it simplifies my workflow. I can access all my emails, workspaces, and integrated apps from one single desktop application. It keeps my work organized and helps me stay focused without jumping between countless browser tabs. I love that I can have different workspaces for different projects and connect tools like Dropbox, WhatsApp, and DocuSign directly inside Shift. It’s incredibly efficient and has honestly become essential for my daily routine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? There aren’t many downsides, but sometimes it can be a bit resource-intensive, especially when running multiple accounts and integrations at once. Also, a few smaller apps or plugins I use aren’t supported yet, which would make it even more complete. Other than that, it’s been very stable and totally worth the price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Shift helps me manage the complexity of working across multiple email accounts, tools, and projects at once. Instead of constantly switching between browsers, tabs, and apps, I have everything organized in one place — from communication to file management and signing documents. It keeps my workflow structured, saves me a lot of time, and helps me stay focused on the actual work instead of managing windows and logins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Senior Software Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/7/2025 "Shift is a must have for users who need a hub to handle everything in one place." 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I like how I can have different workspaces and switch between them depending on what "Role" I have at the moment. If I'm developing software, I can have all my tools centralized in one app and switch between them with ease. Same for when I'm just managing my daily live, I can have all the needed apps right in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? Only downside for me is the pricing for a solo regular paid users. I feel there should be a tier between the free version and the team version where a solo user like me could have access to the amazing features without having to pay like a company. The price Shift charges is fair for a company, but for a solo user a tier in between would be amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Shift solves the problem of having tools and websites all over the place, having all our tools and daily services in one single app that works flawlessly does wonder for my personal productivity.

Web and Tech Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/7/2025 "One Login Saves Me Hours a Day!" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I appreciate the ability to have multiple instances of the same application open without needing to log in and out. I can have them all open in Shift and easily toggle between them. It also allows me to easily see that I have new emails, chats or projects for every application that I have in my dashboard at a quick glance. This saves me hours a day with my busy schedule as a web and tech manager. I color code each client so I can glance and see applications that belong to each specific client. From Google Mail, Slack, Asana, Teamwork, Help Scout, Harvest, Paymo, Dropbox, RoboForm, CodePen, and many more applications that I use. They all have a home in Shift and cut my hours of logging in and out of applications to a minimum! I can't recommend Shift enough! Take control of your life! I use it every day! So easy to set up and start using within 30 minutes or less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? I really don't have much to say negatively about Shift. Sometimes when someone sends me a link let's say in Slack - and it's an Asana link, sometimes it has trouble finding it, but, a workaround is to copy the link and paste it into the right Shift Asana application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Having to login to multiple applications, having too many browser windows open. Having to close one application to enter another of the same type for a different client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Director of Messaging Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 10/7/2025 "Brings some order to a scattered work world" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? I love the way Shift brings all my work spaces -- email, Slack, Monday, etc. -- into one well-organized and accessible pane. It's easy to shift between the various apps while still keeping them all close at hand. Shift is my daily go-to space for my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? Setting up my multiple Slack accounts was a bit tricky at first, but I managed to get it working in the end. I would also appreciate having the option to keep my Google Calendar open in its own dedicated space, separate from my email and other Google Docs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Shift acts as a "meta-app" that brings together all my different work applications and spaces, particularly those focused on communication and task management. By allowing me to access everything from a single, easily accessible platform, it helps me manage the ever-growing number of work communication tools. This consolidation not only reduces my stress but also makes my workflow much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We're sorry to hear that setting up multiple Slack accounts was a bit tricky, but we're glad you were able to get it working in the end. For the Google Calendar having it's own space - you should be able to set up a Workspace and just add the Calendar app to it.

Owner / Business Mentor / Author Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/7/2025 "Shift is a Time Saver!" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? When I turn on my laptop each morning, Shift is the first program that opens up. I run several businesses and hold several volunteer leadership roles. Each business/project has its own Gmail/Google email address. With Shift I can quickly scan each inbox to make sure I have a feeling for what's come in overnight and throughout the day. Thanks to Shift, I don't have to log in and log out of each email address every time I need to check my email. Definite time saver! It's easy to set up email accounts on Shift. You can color code them so it's easy to tell what account you are in at a glance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? I am grateful Shift has added a way to store email addresses and passwords. It is a bit clunky and takes several clicks to get to the information, but at least they are now stored within the system and I don't have to go out to my password program to grab them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Accessing multiple email addresses throughout the day. Easy to switch between inboxes. Easy set up. Reliable. Dependable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 10/7/2025 "The Single Email Solution for the Multi-Email Professional" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Shift? The things that makes Shift a great software is that is does what is says it does; it unified all your email into a single dashboard, giving you the capacity to quickly and easily access all your communications from one point. I use Shift every single day, and I can't imagine navigating six active email accounts without it. The application easily integrates with all the mail servers I use and it's incredibly easy to setup on your computer. In the few instances (early on) that I had issues with the software, customer support was prompt, professional and committed to resolving the issues quickly. Aside from it actually responding to emails for me (no it can't do that... yet), what more could I ask for? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? The only thing I dislike about SHIFT is what I dislike about most things; that it cost so much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Shift solves the problem of me having to constantly switch back and fourth between multiple browsers and/or browser tabs to access my excessive email accounts across 3 businesses and my personal email.

Employee Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/19/2024 "Much improved - It's the perfect email client for keeping up with multiple inboxes" 5/5 What do you like best about Shift? Shift seems to be the best stand-alone email client. It can integrate multiple accounts, with incoming messages automatically grouped into as many as four categories. Implementation was simple. I just entered the account access information, and it imported everything. I rely on it at work every day, to handle email quickly and efficiently and without losing track of any. It just works. I've never had to call customer support. I've tried other email clients, but Shift is the most reliable and the only one that works for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Shift? Shift had trouble, at times, printing to my PDF editor (PDF-Exchange Editor Plus) but they seem to have fixed it in the latest update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Shift solving and how is that benefiting you? Grouping email items by type, based on my classifications, is essential for the way I work. Shift handles this perfectly. When I click a link in an email, it opens as another tab in the Shift window. If I want to open a particular link in a different browser, this is also an option. I just right-click the link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
